Allusion, Ambiguity + Artefact \/ L. E. Glazer Deconstructionist Photographs<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this Exhibition presented by Galleria 814, L. E. Glazer<\/strong> continues his creation of groundbreaking images that transcend the photography paradigm.<\/p>\n

Through contextual abstraction and a play of reductive compositional elements, Glazer intensifies the inherent ambiguity and allusion of his images. At the same time, he selectively leaves behind artefacts as keys for us to engage the works. Upon examination and through a contemplative lens, an invitation is extended to explore the interplay between the urban landscape and residual artefacts of life. From the outset, Glazer implies a progression to the familiar places we know, yet, he surreptitiously withholds the full reality to entice and engage us with his vision.<\/p>\n

It is in this series of photographs that we see a transition from traditional photography to what would typically avail itself if the artist worked on canvas. By leveraging new technology the work continues the exploration of deconstructionist composition in the medium of photography.<\/p>\n

Please join us between 6:30 and 9:30 pm on Thursday September 13th for our opening reception and to meet the Artist.<\/p>\n

L. E. Glazer<\/strong> is a Toronto-based Architect, Photographer & Artist. Following the completion of formal training in 1979, he has focused on creating works that challenge viewer preconceptions and expectations.<\/p>\n

Subject matter has been eclectic, with an attraction to the built forms and patterns rooted in his Architectural background. As Glazer\u2019s images explore the deeper significance of contextual reference, his deconstruction of recorded moments provokes viewers to contemplate multiple realities. While Glazer objectively records moments in time, his exploration of composition and form provides viewers with opportunities for subjective reflection on their own world. It is this dichotomy that provides the richness and cinematic quality to Glazer\u2019s images.<\/p>\n

L. E. Glazer\u2019s work can be found in institutional and private collections across North America. He is currently represented by artProfile in Toronto; The Halsted Gallery, Detroit, Michigan; and Posner Fine Art, Los Angeles, California.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
